It's been a long while we have played this kind of decent football, a commendable first half performance

It is time to try out onyedika. Ndidi cannot peak more than this again

MKPUOGALIGA:
I really want Akor Adams to play

and ejuke

solonnachi:
This line up can be 433, 442, 451 or 4213
Unpredictable... I love it

it's a good lineup to be honest, but I don't want to see lookman playing behind the striker

Enoughpull:
Conservative approach, it's better than going all out with 442..It's one game and a final so nothing to chase aggressively

I agree

What are your thoughts on this starting lineup?

villagereporter:
.

You are your name

If you miss the match, here is the highlight

Now that Nigeria as qualified for the playoff, here is the playoffs format and dates

Is Eric chelle the right man for the job?

If we actually do qualify to the world cup, it will be an historical moment for our nations football because how was that even possible.

mank1234:
Both prayers will be answered.

Nigeria is praying for South Africa to lose.

South Africa is praying for Nigeria to win.

Diavolo:
You're right. It's 2. Only if we didn't concede that goal would have been one and easy but 2 is a lot for our team that hardly score goals

I blame nwabali

Diavolo:
So we need to beat Benin by 3 goals to qualify. South Africa will win Rwanda and top the group. We will beat Benin by a line goal margin but finish 3rd. Hope everyone learns their lessons going forward and we do better for the next qualifiers

I thought is 2 goals

Nwabali is another player to be worried about in this team

Spainever:
The coach is confused 🤔. Lookman and Simon one of them supposed dey bench

it is Simon

yinkeys:
Abeg sha make dem help us mend those Chameleon South Africans wey dey disguise
At least 4 goals to nil

They are indeed chameleons

MetalJigsaw:
4 coaches in justome qualifier campaign, yet...😠

99% faith, 100% calculator.

yinkeys:
They are banking on Osimhen & a few players grit
He should run like a mad man to force errors which will lead to a goal lol
We are in trouble tbh
Osimhen that’s partially injured
I saw straps all over his legs in a new video
We can no longer win games because of names
Teams like SA, Benin, Saudi lol no longer really fear Nigeria if they do their homework properly
I really thought Chelle would’ve finetuned the squad into a scoring machine by now
I thought we’d be putting small teams away without conceding
I won’t be surprised if we struggle against Tanzania in December

players like moses Simon should be starting from the bench. He cannot peak more than what he is offering now in the team. Chelle should also not play key players out of position, not like majority of us had high hopes on him when he took up the job anyways.

yinkeys:
With which creativity are we gonna get 4
Chelle set the team up in a way that’s difficult to even score 1
He was even employed to help us get the win against South Africa, he didn’t
If West African teams like Mali play SA @ AFCON this year again, I believe all the Tier 1 West African teams will beat them, no bragging
Ivory Coast, Ghana, Senegal, Mali
Maybe Nigerias football standard is dropping because of poor management

I remember sometime ago on supersport Monday night football, seyi olofinjana speaking, said
"the super eagles currently does not have a footballing identity whether we win draw or lose. We don't have an identity which is worrisome".

Manuel Akanji: "Obviously, I play for the Swiss national team, but I’m still really proud of being Nigerian... It’s been a long time since I’ve been back to Nigeria."

"My tattoo? It's the eagle from the Nigerian national team, It’s something I carry with me." (Inter TV)

Manuel Akanji’s heart says Nigeria, but his passport says Switzerland.

9JAMac10:
Keep hopes alive. As long as the super eagle win the final two games in October. We will be in the World Cup next summer

yes, I love your spirit. The most important thing right now is for us to win our remaining games and we see how it goes from there

Car321:
Did South Africa field an ineligible player vs Lesotho?

Teboho Mokoena (Yellow Card 54 mins ) vs Benin- Match Day 1

Teboho Mokoena ( Yellow Card 52nd minute ) vs Zimbabwe -Match day 4

He should have been suspended for their game vs Lesotho, but he played. If confirmed, South Africa will be deducted 3 points.

Please let NFF, CAF, and FIFA know.

take a bow

minfelix:
Just wait first make we gather that 17pts🤣🤣🤣….e go do many of una voom n’anya

there are about 4 teams that need just 2 points to finish above 17points. (Madagascar, DR Congo, Gabon) There is no way we are going through to the next round.

elyte89:
South Africa is not losing any games again …let’s hope for second spot

even though we finish in second spot, we won't go through to the next round

BankyGee:
My head wan blow

na super eagles cause am

Mybettingtips:
- Victor Osimhen
- Ademola Lookman
- Samuel Chukwueze
- Alex Iwobi
- Ola Aina
- Nathan Tella
- Calvin Bassey
- Christantus Uche
- Victor Boniface
- Cyriel Dessers
- Tolu Arokodare
- Raphael Onyedika
- Wilfried Ndidi
- Moses Simon
- Frank Onyeka
- Joe Aribo
- Kelechi Ihenacho
- Taiwo Awoniyi
- Umar Sadiq

Just some of the names Nigeria have in their ranks and yet are not qualifying for a second-straight World Cup

if benin lose to lesotho, & we beat benin & lesotho, & south africa lose to zimbabwe & rwanda, & benin also lose to nigeria & rwanda, we can still qualify.

MatchDay! 🇳🇬

mostob:
People who still have World Cup hope on this thread are gems. I admire your resilience.

I'm not pessimistic o but I like being realistic. I hope for your sakes, a miracle happens.

bros, I came across this stats on twitter and I just shook my head like how did we put ourselves in this situation. We have quite a decent team to face any opponent in CAF. I have faint hope of us qualifying, and It's so hard to take to be honest.

Match day!

Anybody wey know this Lesotho goalkeeper, make Una warn am oooo
